Do you know the difference between Iron and Steel?

Cast iron is a family of ferrous alloys with a high carbon content, typically ranging from 2 to 4 percent, as well as varying amounts of silicon and other elements. This iron-carbon alloy is made through the process of casting, which involves melting, pouring, and solidifying the molten iron into a mold to form various shapes. Cast iron is known for its excellent castability, heat resistance, wear resistance, and durability. However, due to its high carbon content, it is also brittle, making it less flexible and more prone to breakage under heavy loads or impacts.
